[Nouveau] System freeze: Debian Stable with C61 [GeForce 7025 / nForce 630a]
Hi, this may be an old issue.
I copied at the bottom the last message of a previous solution for
this same machine.
Essentially I have random freezes (display image seems like a snow storm or just
gets frozen), nothing works, I'm forced to hard reset the machine.
Last time the solution was just to remove nouveau_dri.so, and for what
seems to be
a couple of years system worked rock-solid.
But a couple of days ago I did a system update (I'm on Debian Stable
Bullseye right
now) and apparently the problem reappeared but worse/different: now it
happens even
without nouveau_dri.so present on the system. (Meaning: I remove
nouveau_dri.so and
the freezes happen randomly anyway.)
The hardware is the same, so, I'm imaging maybe is a kernel issue?
This is the hardware:

Sorry for not trimming anything, not sure what's useful and what's not.
Any hint?
As previously, thanks A LOT in advance.
Best regards!
